The Oxford Debate
'T'OMORROW evening the University of Oregon will meet
...Oxford University in a contest unique in the history of
debate in Oregon.
International debating has not long been in practice between
the United States and other countries. The first project of this
kind was in the spring of 1922 when Bates College sent a team
to England and met Oxford University. This meet was so sue-!
cessful that it resulted in an invitation being extended the
Oxford men to visit the United States in the fall of the same
year. This team met not only the Bates team, but several
others as well.
In the spring of 1923 a team from Columbia University
visited England and met a number of groups. This team was
highly successful and well received, and a spirit of friendship
grew up between it and the various English colleges. In the
fall Oxford again sent a team to the United States which tour
ed the eastern colleges.
At present there are two English teams in the United
States, the Oxford team and one from Cambridge. The former
is touring the western states, while the latter is meeting the
eastern groups.
The Oxonians, J. D. Woodruff, Malcolm MacDonald and
M. C. Hollis, were brought to the United States by the Insti
tute of International Education. They will meet teams of
more than thirty colleges and universities before the conclu
sion of their trip.
The meet here tomorrow night cannot fail to prove inter
esting. The Oxonians are introducing a new style of debating
gprocedure, said to be much less formalistic and logical than
is customary in American contests. English debating places
no emphasis on the winning of one team or the other, but asks
for judgment solely on the .merits vof the question, and this
judgment is passed by the audience. A strict analysis of the
difference between the two practices is most clearly demon
strated by saying that whereas American debating is an imita
tion of the law courts, English debating is a parody of Par
liament. 4
Each of the Oxonians has been active outside the strictly
academic side of university life. Woodruff, interested in poli
ties, was a supporter of Mr. Herbert Asquith in the British
elections; MacDonald, the son of ex-Prime Minister MacDonald
of the recent labor government, was a labor candidate for Par
liament in the general elections; and Hollis has written for
several English papers and has contributed to “The Outlook.’’
Their style of delivery is said to he “easy, informal, fre
quently witty, sometimes ironic.”
The Oregon team< composed of Paul Patterson, Walter
Malcolm, and Joe Frazer, should make a good showing. Pat
terson has a number of years experience in debating aud ora-4
tory; Malcolm and Frazer last year won the California-Oregon
radio debate, the first of its kind to be held.
Since this is the first international debate ever held in Ore
gon, with the opposing teams well equipped to meet each other,
even though trained on entirely different principles of pro
cedure a large audience and an interested audience may be
prophesied.
The Point of View
TNTJMATION that the course followed at college has a dis
tinct. effect on the reaction of an individual to a particular
situation was well illustrated the other evening on the high
way between Eugene and Cottage Grove. A machine was park
ed at the side of the smooth pavement, and in the flood of illum
ination thrown by the spotlight were several couples dancing
gayly to the tune of a portable phonograph. In a car which
passed them were four students, one of law, one of education,
one of journalism, and one of medicine.
“That’s an obstruction to the roadway and is against the
law,” protested the future barrister.
“That means no studying and poor grades,” mourned the
one interested in pedagogy.
“That would make a snappy feature story,” exclaimed the
journalist.
“That means colds and sore throats,” grunted the irmdic.

OUR FOUR MINUTE TALK
What is only generally said of
college students is only generally
true. What is particularly said of
college students is only sometimes
true. This profound statement of
truth is based upon the fundamen

gie, 666 B. C.) that a circus tent'
will cover a peanut, but that the j

reverse situation is not true ex
cepting -yhen the peanut is larger
than the circus tent. This leads
us directly to the fundamental fact,
as pictured by some of the most
successful authors and authorities
on college life: that generally
speaking, all college students wear
twenty inch bottoms, butterfly
ties, read Aldons Huxley’s “Archi
medes” while drunk, play quarter
back on the varsity football team,
and spend the hours of 9 p. m. to
12 p. m. playing poker ind other
childish games. Generally speak
ing, this is undoubtedly true. A
few exceptions are to be noticed.
These exceptions are due to the fact
that, many college men do not play
quarter back on the varsity foot
ball squad. (J. Maddock, pps. 1-11)
and that several men do not exactly
know how to play poker. (Hoyle,
v. 1).
As for the co-ed. All co-eds carry
canoe paddles and tennis racquets.
All co-eds are engaged. (Not one is
married). All co-eds are pretty
and carry around chocolates which
they eat while humming (if high
brow) a scherzo from Beethoven, or
(if not so inclined) a recent Broad
way song. These characteristics of
the college co-ed are, generally
speaking, perfectly true.

CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS HAS
HOPES FOR FUTURE CO-EDS
(Extract from the Cornell “Alum
ni News”)
The large battalion of girls who
occupied this town during Junior
Week were a well bred and well
mannered lot—and easy to look at
withall. They behaved themselves.
They gave evidence of having been
soundiy spanked by an indignant
parent some time or other and with
highly salutary results. They had
manners and not customs. Man
ners are coming back. This is im
portant if true. If manners come
back the Jazz age will be over and
a lot of lecherous orchestra lead
ers will have to get back to their
jobs in the tenderloin.
